I am testing Joomla 1.7 with your template and it looks fantastic! I do have a couple of issues and hope you can help.

1. The top menu in position-1 gets cut off by the slideshow. It looks like it it hidden behind. Incidentally, I tried menuload and it did the same thing.

2. When mousing over a menu item, the sub-menu is displayed, but when a menu-item of the sub-menu is moused over, the next level sub-menu is not displayed.

3. The slideshow worked at the beginning, but when I tried to use menuload as the position for the top menu, it disappeared, even after I switched the top menu position back to position-1. Strangely, it did the same with other templates of yours, such as Mint and Deserted.

Banner I mean where the ad in on top (you can see in in my site). When I change it from 450 to 468 or bigger it goes to the right (and that mean outside the header)…

Also if you can fix this also it would be great:

I can’t get the pictures in the slideshow to change from the originals. Even when I change URL, the original pictures are there. I even opened a flickr account so I could copy what you did. I got the text to change, but not the image. Thanks for your help!

I am currently using your template on my website (joomla 1.7) however it looks quite different. Articles are not shown in the curved edge box as shown in the demo. I have tried all the settings and just can’t get that look. What am I doing wrong?

when I select a article as a featured post,show this notice aafter slidshow.
Notice: Undefined property: ContentViewFeatured::$print in D:\wamp\www\templates\inspiration-tg\html\com_content\featured\default_item.php on line 67

On the top menu in menuload postion, hovering shows the first level submenu, but hovering over the items on the submenu doesn’t display the next level submenu. How do I fix it? (show submenu is set to yes).

I like your template. However, I’m having difficulty with your topmenu position. The top position appears, but the topmenu does not. I just want to have a log-in and register appear in the topmenu.
When I go to the module positions, the topmenu is not an option in the template. Your help would be appreciated.

I”m using your template on my site and have applied hwdVideoshare and hwdphotoshare components and related plugins. I’m facing a problem with the sliding problem of the features in both components. The hwd support says it is possible mootool or jquery conflict with the template. I have tried those components on joomla default templates and they work fine then.

I also have a similar problem. I cannot get my PayPal buttons to work. They work on a Joomla site without the template. I tried downloading a PayPal button module, but that would not work, and the developer of the module said this:

“It is your template that is using jquery:

Quote from template:

You’ll need to contact the developer of this template and have them use jQuery.noConflict() in order to be compatible with mootools.”

The images are not in the normal images folder. They are in the images folder inside the template’s folder. I had to go in with FTP and put the pictures in there to get it to work. Also, they had to be named 1.jpg, 2.jpg etc.

I can easily change the copyright even the one under the copyright ha ha ha ha its done through index.php and function.php search it on google you will find it or add me on skype assad.jehangir.shah ill tell u!!

Bonjour,
I am testing this template (joomla 1.7.3).I like. But i have testing a very simple slide show (http://www.bretteleben.de/index.php)to put in artcle.but it do not work with your template.The function start , stop, >> or << are blocked. But if i use template joomla ,beez, parkside, the slide show work good.
Have you some Explanation?
Great regards from France

Very nice template. I have only one problem. In the slideshow I don’t want to write any description or something else but when I go to template manager and leave blank all the fields for the slideshow nothing happens! How can I make my site play the slideshow without these description?

I like this template but am having an issue as a new Joomla user I can’t seem to figure out. I want to put a different Logo in the top left hand corner of the template instead of the “inspiration” Logo that comes with the template. How do I do that?

Also, I would like to put a graphic on the right hand side and was using a banner to do that in the TOP position, but it ends up being centered instead of all the way to the right. How can I get my graphic to be all the way over to the right at the top of the template?

OK. I figured it out. I discovered that you can hit the preview button which is just to the left of the template name in the template manager (styles tab). This shows you the location of all the positions. Once I figured that out, the rest was relatively easy. Images are actually particularly easy via the random image module choice whcih comes with the template. Then it was just a question of adjusting the image to fit the template. That was easy – NOT! Unitil you figured out how.

1. In the updated (Inspiration-FTJ)template it’s another font on the screen. I liked more the font from Inspiration-TG1 than Inspiration-FTJ, but I like the slideshow from FTJ. How can I change the font to be same as Inspiration-TG1 (i looked in styles.css at both versions and I saw no difference in font famylies)?

2. How can I add more pictures to the slideshow (more tham 4)?

3. It is possible to add another slideshow module (in slideshow position) instead of yours? How?

I really enjoyed using your template design especially the Inspiration -GT; however, I do have a bud to report in the template.
Whenever i login for some reason the last Menu object wrapped and stay right under the home menu. is there any suggestions a to why the menu behavior is out of control? or is this something I can control from the CSS stylesheet?
Secondly…Is it possible for me to change the template background color?

In a fresh Joomla 1.7 install, I installed the tg-inspiration template. It works, but there is an error on any secondary pages I create with the slideshow. The home page (which is set to point to an article) works fine, the slideshow displays and no error. But, I added two more pages (both pointing to articles) and when I go to those pages, no slideshow displays, and I see two errors in IE (8):
“Message: ‘this.container’ is null or not an object
Line: 296
Char: 3
Code: 0
URI: http://lamp1/chl/templates/inspiration-tg/slideshow/NivooSlider.js

Is there any way to get more levels on the drop down menu, I have several sub-menu levels and only the first level shows, I have changed all the settings in the menu module to allow all sub-menu levels but no joy. I see several other people asking the same question but it is continually dodged???

i like your template very much. But i have one issue.
I created a top menu and it differs from your demo. In your Demo the Topmenu have a white background. And my top menu has only the text / link but dont have a white background. I have the blue background from banner/logo.
Sorry my website is installed local so i cant post you a link to show you my problem. But i hope you understand me.
Sorry, but my english is not the best.

Hi, i have used this template in my latest website. Its awesome! But i get a clickable link in the header image which shows up all the time. How can i get rid of it. Pls help. Will give u the link if needed.

Hi.
Using this template, but….
Changing the pictures in the slideshow difficult. Have to go around and upload and rename pictures since the administration page has no effect.
Also page using som jQuery-thing owerwriting some basic Joomla code causing other plugins/extensions using the original Joomla-coding will not work 🙁

i have a problem, when i install this template. And open it with IE so the style is wron the corners are not round, and the top menu in position 1 have a linebrake after the first menuentry.
In Chrome or Safari it works correctly.
Have you any ideas?
Thanks a lot!

I have a question.
Is it possible to edit some file in order to have 5 images and not only 4 in the slideshow ????
Even if I edit the right file (dunno wich one) the backend of the template has textboxes just for 4 descriptions so I dunno if what I am asking is possible….
